It really is episodes like this, having heard most of the negative feedback, that force me to avoid the Pokemon anime until the very last episode before they go to Shinou. Because the fillers really are incredibly boring. :<

Wait, Electrode in a tree?

How the hell did it get up there? It's a ball, so it couldn't have jumped that high. And even if it did, how did it manage to stay up there without rolling off?

I do believe that you are forgetting giant Treeko, Gulpin, Gengar, Alakazam, and Jigglypuff. Bagon thought the law of physics would bend for him.

Maybe it was stuck between branches, how it got up there is beyound all of us.

Whoever said this ep was boring must not have actually watched it. If you look at something like "Whichever Way the Wind Blows", now there's boring. But this is yet another solid AG filler overall. And if you've missed all the AG filler episodes, Alfonso, you've missed some excellent ones.

So no captures, evolutions, contests, or gym battles automatically equals boring? How shallow can you possibly be? There's a lot more to the show than just those things. There's character development, moments where aspects of a character are brought into the spotlight, humor...and just plain entertainment. Whatever happened to just sitting back and watching, being entertained by a form of entertainment that you like, rather than constantly complaining about it?

Why did you even post this? Use some freakin' common sense. If something as major as that had happened, don't you think it would have been mentioned long before now? And don't you think it would have showed up in the episode pictures, which you should have had the sense to check before asking this?

Or maybe, I dunno, it was boring because it just was? Not being about the things mentioned above doesn't make the episodes boring, but actually BEING boring does.

So seeing Sceptile jump on the end of that log and flip Bagon into the air was boring? Seeing some all-too-well-deserved spotlight time for Brock where he actually does something major was boring? Seeing development for May and Max by having them bond with Pokemon that aren't theirs was boring? Seeing the funny Warner Brothers-style chain of events that caused the bus accident was boring? It must take a lot to keep you entertained.

My god!
My word!
My lumbago!
THAT ELECTRODE HAD THE BEST VOICE EVER!
...umm. That was pretty much one of the very few highlights of this episode.

There were others however, and they include (and are limited to);

-Jessie looking real fine as Team Rocket were making their get away in the balloon, just after the usual motto assualt. Dayam.
-James' PO'd pose. For some reason, it was oddly amusing. The very adorable image of an irritated Manene only helped in making the scene THAT much funnier.
-Sceptile proving it's masculinity by catapulting a pokémon no bigger than it's foot into the stratosphere. He needs to bully those puny baby puppy weaklings until they are no more on more regular intervals.
-Iwane stock footage from later episodes making this one look like discarded meatball sauce, with dirt and bits of dandruf in it. Stock footage: It bites animation directors in the butt.
-Buoysel's ingame cry sounds awesome. Like a lawnmower trying to cut through a bouncy castle!
-Forretress lives. For some random reason, the poor neglected rust bucket let out a very solem 'For....For....' during the closing sponsor. Atta boy Forretress! Show 'em you can still be a winner!

Final verdict: One hell of a snooze fest that could have done with more humour, more decent Brock development, more action, more anything.

This was a pretty good episode. Everyone was doing something different so you got to see alot. I think if anyone should have gotten one of these pokemon May should have gotten Larvitar. It was as good or better than the whole of the BF fillers. I just can't wait to see next weeks episode since it should be extremely good

What happened was that 2 Pidgey carried the Electrode up the tree with some rope, most likely European. Reusing minor character styles is really common, I just don't know when the last time was that they used it in the same episode

This episode was good. Unfortunately, this wasn’t one of the better episodes. IMO, it was kind of a waste of having an episode. Bagon was pretty cool in this episode, but I felt bad for him. It was good to see him recover as well as Nurse Joy. There’s nothing much more to say about this episode.

This episode just reminded me of a couple of episodes in the past. A Chansey Operation (because of Ash and the gang helping out with sick and injured pokemon). Let Bagons be Bagons (because of the Bagon...duh). Nice to know that some things never change in seeing Pokemon they've seen before and act like they've never seen it before. Hatch Me If You Can (Larvitar) Seeing Larvitar again brought back some Johto memories (I never said they were great memories) It was mostly because of Larvitar's Sandstorm attack on May and Professor Oak that had me going.

I don't understand why I practically hated this episode =/
The music in it annoyed me for some reason, Was it all dub music? (It was quite loud for some reason)
And the plot..It was just useless, This is one of my least favorite episodes and I don't hate alot of episodes o_o;
